Best Ice Cream in NYC: L’Arte Del Gelato, Il Laboratorio del Gelato and more!
We eat lots of ice cream all throughout the year–at least one bowl each day, in fact–so summer's not an especially frozen-treatish time for us. But there have been a bunch of new NYC ice cream parlors and gelato stands opening up recently, so as we head into high summer, we figured it was as […]
Jeffrey’s Grocery, new in the West Village
If the eatery gods insist upon setting fire to your hugely popular restaurant, forcing you to close for weeks (or–yikes!–even longer), it definitely helps to have just opened up a new place right across the street. And so is the case with Gabe Stulman, and his damaged (but not too severely) Joseph Leonard, and his […]
Nanoosh NYC
Oh Nanoosh, you're such a tease. When the first invitingly-designed space of what has become a humus-centric chainlet opened on the Upper West Side, we were more than a little excited. At the time, eating on Broadway in the 60s, 70s and 80s was pretty much like this: bad diner, boring salad/sandwich chain, bad pizza, […]
Five Napkin Burger on the Upper West Side
Five Napkin Burger's been packing in the usual Upper West Side suspects–families with little kids, packs of teenagers, fifth-date couples, old-timers, late-night solo snackers–since it opened in February on a prime corner of 84th and Broadway. And no surprise, really, that it's a popular choice. Not only does this friendly, casual "neighborhood restaurant" (read: upscale […]
Momoya Sushi NYC on Amsterdam Avenue
Every neighborhood needs a go-to sushi spot, somewhere you can rely upon time after time to deliver generous servings of pristine fish at a reasonable price in a comfortable environment. When we lived on the Upper West Side, that spot became Momoya Sushi NYC, on Amsterdam Avenue near 80th Street, which opened in the fall […]
Recipe Restaurant on the Upper West Side
Recipe NYC is one of the great under-sung heroes of the recent restaurant renaissance on the Upper West Side. A homey, narrow room on a stretch of Amsterdam Avenue in Manhattan notorious for its mediocre kitchens, Recipe Restaurant NYC, open less than a year, takes fresh ingredients, some obvious talent, and a whole lot of […]
West Branch: Tom Valenti’s Upper West Side Restaurant
The sad thing is, Tom Valenti could have done just about anything in that big space in the heart of the Upper West Side, and the crowds would have come. Valenti, you see, is something of a culinary hero in these parts, for bringing bold flavors and expertly prepared “low cuts” of meat to a […]
Fatty Crab Restaurant UWS
The Fatty Crab restaurant and the Upper West Side: it’s not an obvious fit. After all, Zak Pelaccio’s West Village Fatty Crab has been a scenester / foodie mainstay for a few years now, wowing the downtown crowd with its big, messy meals (don’t order the signature Chili Crab on a first date–it’s a smash […]
Greenmarket Farmers Markets NYC
Top 5 Favorite NYC Farmers Markets Greenmarket Farmers Markets in NYC have flourished in recent years, much to the delight of all of us who love fresh farm-picked–and fresh grown, and -butchered, and -milked, and -baked–fruits and vegetables and meats and dairy and breads and pastries. Which should, of course, be all of us. […]
Michael Psilakis’s Gus & Gabriel Restaurant: An UWS Gastropub
Michael Psilakis’s Gus and Gabriel boasts a pretty impressive pedigree for a menu that features Tater Tots, Glazed Riblets, and Chili Dogs. Housed, rather handsomely, in Psilakis’s former Kefi space, the Upper West Side restaurant / “gastropub” Gus and Gabriel is the fourth in Michael Psilakis rapidly expanding mini-empire, which includes his flagship Anthos, […]
